Some More Adventurous Quadcopter Flying (H107CHD)

Another flight with my H107CHD quadcopter.

This time it was sunny with a slight breeze.

I have continued to get used to flying this quadcopter with faster flying more turns and low altitude flight.

H107CHD Quadcopter Fareham flight

Here is a new video of another flight in my Hubsan H107CHD Quadcopter.

Weather was overcast with a little wind. I took it up a bit higher this time and got some nice views.

HD Cam x4 Quadcopter flight

Here is another video of my new x4 quadcopter with HD camera.

This time the weather was much better but was still a bit too windy to take it too high up.

The image quality from the camera on this copter is much better than my previous custom jobs with keyring cameras.

Flying with the birds

This is a new record for me regarding aerial photography. I flew my x4 quadcopter up to its highest (camera attached) altitude yet and got some nice footage of Portsmouth.

Look out for the flock of birds!

First Attempt at some stunts with camera pod attached.

I thought I would attempt some loops and barrel rolls with the camera pod attached to my x4 quadcopter.

I did not get enough altitude on the first attempt to compensate for the extra weight added from the camera.

Barrel rolls look sweet in first person!

Flying my x4 quadcopter (with loops and rolls)


This is an amazing machine for its price. It is an extremely stable quad copter capable of loops and rolls. If you are thinking of getting someone a helicopter like gadget for christmas, you should spend a few extra pounds on one of these.
